The 3-Minute Foundation Test

Read. Reflect. Discover.

"The Lord is my shepherd; I have all that I need. He lets me rest in green meadows; he leads me beside peaceful streams. He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honour to his name."

PSALM 23:1-3 (NLT)

Grab a notepad or your phone. Read the text above, then click below to start the questions.

1. What does this say about people? The text compares us to sheep who need to be "led" to rest and "guided" along right paths. What does this suggest about our human ability to find true satisfaction and direction on our own?
2. What does this say about God? Look at the verbs: He lets, He leads, He renews, He guides. What kind of "Leader" is being described here? How is this different from the "leaders" or "bosses" we usually encounter?
3. If this is true, what changes? The first line says, "I have all that I need." If you truly believed you already had everything you needed because of who is leading you, how would that change your level of anxiety about tomorrow?

Hi! We’re Anthony and Ruth.
We’re a local couple in the Thame area. We started this experiment to share the same ancient wisdom that helps us build a life on a solid foundation.

Looking for a better way to live?

We have created a free "5-Day Foundation Challenge". It explores ancient wisdom on finding purpose, direction, and a life that lasts.
